Sinopsis

Tom Parsons’ days are interrupted by an unsettling and peculiar stoppage of time. He dubs these terrifying events The Sleep and when they occur, he is left in a state of complete limbo, with nothing active but his eyes and mind.
 
At first, he questions his own sanity. But when a sound cuts through the stillness, he realizes something else is out there.
 
Watching. Waiting.
 
Detective Kate Strathmore is hunting for a missing woman, and all signs point to Tom. But a chance encounter with a homeless man - who speaks of true evil lurking in the frozen moments between time - gives her pause.
 
As Tom, Kate, and the old man confront the darkness hiding inside these moments, they find themselves in a fight for their lives... Because while others are asleep in the stillness, something else is wide awake.

The Paradise of Thieves - Short Story by G.K. Chesterton: The Paradise of Thieves was published in The Wisdom of Father Brown. This mystery is a real cliff-hanger.
The great Muscari, most original of the young Tuscan poets, walked swiftly into his favourite restaurant, which overlooked the Mediterranean, was covered by an awning and fenced by little lemon and orange trees. Waiters in white aprons were already laying out on white tables the insignia of an early and elegant lunch; and this seemed to increase a satisfaction that already touched the top of swagger. Muscari had an eagle nose like Dante; his hair and neckerchief were dark and flowing; he carried a black cloak, and might almost have carried a black mask, so much did he bear with him a sort of Venetian melodrama. He acted as if a troubadour had still a definite social office, like a bishop. He went as near as his century permitted to walking the world literally like Don Juan, with rapier and guitar.

Against the wishes of her stepfather, Mary Sutherland has become engaged to Hosmer Angel. On the morning of their wedding Hosmer elicits a promise that Mary will remain faithful to him "even if something quite unforeseen" occurs, then mysteriously disappears en route to the church. Holmes deduces that Hosmer was Mary's stepfather in disguise, the charade a bid to keep Mary a spinster and thus maintain access to her inheritance. Holmes does not reveal the truth to Mary because "There is danger for him who taketh the tiger cub, and danger also for whoso snatches a delusion from a woman"; he had already advised her to put the matter behind her, though she responded that Hosmer "shall find me ready when he comes back."

The trio know to step carefully with the contentious undercurrents at play.
